佛說觀佛三昧海經 9.22

9.22

爾時世尊告諸大眾：「我念過去無數劫時，爾時有佛，號栴檀窟莊嚴如來、應供、正遍知、明行足、善逝、世間解、無上士、調御丈夫、天人師、佛、世尊！十號具足。在閻浮提諸德山中，於彼山中出家學道，足滿七劫成阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。爾時彼世有二童子，多聞無厭遊行國界問諸婆羅門。時有一婆羅門名牢度叉伽，告言：『童子！世間有佛名栴檀窟，汝等二人可詣彼所求論義法。』時二童子，長者名為一切喜見，第二童子名勇猛鎧，共詣佛所，各持天華共散如來。爾時世尊寂然禪定，入三昧王三昧身心不動，普現一切諸佛色身，光明無數如般若波羅蜜說。時二童子見佛色身及見光明，即時超越那由他恒河沙阿僧祇劫生死之罪，恒得值遇無量無數百千諸佛，於諸佛所修行甚深念佛三昧，現前得見十方諸佛，為其演說不退法輪。爾時第一童子豈異人乎？今彌勒菩薩是！第二童子今我釋迦牟尼是！我與賢劫諸菩薩，曾於過去栴檀窟佛所，聞是諸佛色身變化觀佛三昧海，以是因緣功德力故，超越九百萬億阿僧祇劫生死之罪，於此賢劫次第成佛，最後樓至如來亦於此處說觀佛三昧。」

Then the Bhagavat addressed the great assembly: "I recall that countless kalpas ago, at that time there was a Buddha named Candanaguhāvyūha Tathāgata, Arhat, Samyaksambuddha, Vidyācaraṇasaṃpanna, Sugata, Lokavid, Anuttara, Puruṣadamyasārathi, Śāstādevamanuṣyāṇām, Buddha, Bhagavat, endowed with the ten titles. In Jambudvīpa, amid the Mountain of All Virtues, he went forth to study the Way in that mountain, and upon completing full seven kalpas, he attained anuttarasamyaksambodhi. At that time in that world, there were two boys who were insatiable in their quest for erudition, traveling through states and kingdoms questioning brahmins. There was a brahmin named Raudrākṣa who said to them: 'Boys! In the world there is a Buddha named Candanaguhā; you two may go to where he is to seek debate on the Dharma.' Then the two boys—the elder named Sarvapriyadarśana and the second boy named Śūrasaṃnāha—went together to the Buddha's place, each holding heavenly flowers and together scattering them over the Tathāgata. At that time, the Bhagavat was in serene meditation, having entered the Samādhirāja-samādhi, his body and mind motionless, universally manifesting the form-bodies of all Buddhas, with countless rays of light as expounded in the Prajñāpāramitā. When the two boys saw the Buddha's form-body and saw the light, they immediately transcended the sins of birth and death of nayutas of Ganges-sands of asaṃkhyeya kalpas, and constantly encountered immeasurable, countless hundreds of thousands of Buddhas, practicing the profound mindfulness-of-the-Buddha samādhi under those Buddhas. The Buddhas of the ten directions appeared before them and expounded the non-retrogressing wheel of Dharma for them. Could the first boy at that time have been someone else? It is none other than Maitreya Bodhisattva today! The second boy is none other than myself, Śākyamuni! Together with the bodhisattvas of the Bhadrakalpa, in the past at the place of Candanaguhā Buddha, I heard this ocean-like samādhi of Buddha contemplation on the transformation of the Buddhas' form-bodies. By the power of the merit of these causes and conditions, we transcended the sins of birth and death of nine hundred million billion asaṃkhyeya kalpas, and in this Bhadrakalpa will attain Buddhahood in succession; the last one, Rucika Tathāgata, will also expound the buddhānusmṛti-samādhi right here."
